Senator Roger Marshall is fighting to make government cuts permanent. He says the DOGE program saved taxpayers big money. But not everyone is happy about the cuts. Some folks in Kansas got real mad at him.
The DOGE cuts have already saved over $180 billion. That’s more than $1,100 back in every Kansas taxpayer’s pocket. Senator Marshall wants to lock these savings in place with new laws. He says this stops Washington from wasting your hard-earned cash.
Marshall argues most Americans want to slash government waste. He claims 70% of people support cutting fraud and abuse. His new bill would force the government to check every payment twice. That means no more sending your money to crooks or lazy bureaucrats.
At a town hall in Oakley, angry crowds confronted Marshall. They shouted about cuts hurting farmers and veterans. One woman said payments froze for work farmers already did. Veterans worry about job losses too. Marshall had to leave the meeting early because things got too heated.
Marshall isn’t backing down though. He told folks he’d “double down, not slow down” on cuts. He says tough choices are needed to save America. The senator believes you can’t fix broken government without pruning the fat. He calls it standing up for taxpayers against Washington waste.
The battle over DOGE cuts is heating up in Congress. Lawmakers held special hearings called “Locking in the DOGE Cuts.” They want these savings to stick for good. Marshall says this is about protecting your wallet from big spenders. He calls it a fight for America’s future against reckless debt.
Critics say the cuts go too far and hurt real people. They point to farmers waiting on payments and veterans losing jobs. But Marshall says those stories are fake news. He insists only wasteful programs get cut. The senator promises no essential services will suffer.
This showdown puts real Americans first against big government. Marshall vows to cross the finish line with these savings. He says it’s about making Washington work for you again. The fight for permanent cuts is the fight for your family’s future.
